YD,

This one is living in my head so far. It has not materialised yet, but we are working on it.

Just teh cartridge to have when old mbogo is 10 yards away and coming fast.

We named it after our friend anf PH, Roy Vincent. To Roy, Bigger Is Better!

What if we were to base it off the .700 NE proportions? Bigass straightnecked rim-case round with a shitload of powder? Now that would thump an elephant!
EDIT: Whatabout some kind of mounted gun. It's clear this is well beyond human limits. Like a punt gun.

Oblivion,

Welcome to the forum.

The .700 NE does not have the right diameter to use for this one. It is already a straight walled cartridge.

Look at our data for, as we developed it in a bolt action rifle.

That was very funny! [Big Grin]
So, Saeed, .700NE proportions are out, then? I didn't want to take .700NE and neck it up or whatever, I just wanted to use a round in similar proportions, and shape. Is that feasible?

Saeed:
Wasn't this going to be based on the 20mm boyes anti-tank cartridge?

Neck it down? I want to see the action you come up with...
How about making it a double...?
